Hello and welcome to Day 4 of the third Test match between New Zealand and England at Seddon Park, Hamilton. After a rain-impacted start to Day 3, it was a day dominated by New Zealand. Their batting line-up piled on a massive 453 runs in the second innings, with Kane Williamson’s majestic 156 at the helm. Despite a brief fightback from England in the field, the match sees them trailing by 640 runs with only two days left. England’s bowlers, though tiring, gave their best, but the New Zealand middle order, including Daryl Mitchell, Tom Blundell, and Mitchell Santner, provided crucial contributions. As we head into Day 4, the Kiwis are firmly in control.
